"Chuo Line, Shinjuku Station - 300M" (中央線 新宿駅 300M)

中央線 新宿駅 300M

This black sign with white lettering (first picture above), saying 中央線 新宿駅 300M (Chuo Line, Shinjuku Station 300M) I like for its simplicity, clarity, unique style, and its link to the past.  I suppose this type of sign used to be a standard type?  In any case, it's quite rare in 2010 (soon 2011) Tokyo.  Old it may be, but it's perfectly clear and useful, so I hope it stays there indefinitely.
